The original questions/requests are copied below as they appear on the February 8, 2007 letter and are then followed by our response to each. Additional Information Requested: 1. Your application states that your project is in the Cape Fear River Basin, however, your NCEEP acceptance letter states that the mitigation is for the Neuse River basin. Please address this discrepancy. The application package submitted to your office on January 30, 2007 is correct; the 12 Oaks project is in the Cape Fear River Basin. The original application package submitted in March 2006 (with supplemental information supplied in April and May 2006) also correctly stated that the project is in .the Cape Fear River Basin, including the EEP acceptance letter dated March 1, 2006. The letter supplied in the recently submitted modification request was the EEP "receipt" dated July 2006, which contained a typographical error. Please see the attached revised EEP receipt which contains a notation explaining the error. We anticipate that this answers all of the DWQ's questions in order to complete the final review process fora 401 Water Quality Certification. If you have any further questions or any additional explanation is needed, please don't hesitate to call.
